Why Hydrogen? To promote Hydrogen Energy, there are reasons such as; Energy Security Reducing Environmental Burdens Competitiveness
Japan’s Road Map toward Hydrogen Society • “Strategic Road Map for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells” ( Agency for Natural Resources and Energy, METI) Phase:2 Phase:1 Phase:3 H2 Power Plant/ Mass Supply Chain Installation Fuel Cell CO2-free Hydrogen 2009: Micro-CHP FC 2015: FCV 2017: Large-CHP FC around 2020: FCV fuel cost ≦ HEV fuel cost around 2025: FCV cost competitive ≧ HEV - Accelerate RD&D - Realize reasonable H2 Price 2020 Tokyo Olympic/ Paralympics 2nd half of 2020’s: -H2 Cost (CIF) : JPY30/Nm3 -Enhance Supply Chain in Japan around 2030: -Import H2 from overseas -Full Scale H2 Power Plant 2030 around 2040: -Full Scale CO2-free H2 (w/ Renewable Energy, CCS, etc) 2040 Create New Market on Hydrogen / Fuel Cell (Japan) Approx. 1 trillion yen in 2030 → Approx. 8 trillion yen in 2050
NEDO’s approach realizing Hydrogen Society Step 1: micro-CHP/ Enefarm - to make fuel cell to those familiar Step 2: FCV / Hydrogen Refueling Station - to use hydrogen as energy Step 3: Hydrogen Power Generation - to expand hydrogen demand Realizing Hydrogen Society
NEDO’s Activities NEDO’s Budget for Hydrogen Energy in 2015 Total: JPY 11,860 million (85 million Euro)
NEDO’s Project: HRS Item 1: Streamlining Regulations “Regulation Reform Plan” (Cabinet approved in June 2013) - 24 items were identified as priority (e.g. location, distance, materials, etc.) Item 2: R&D on low cost equipment for HRS e.g. Compressor, Pre-cooler, Reformer, etc. Item 3: HRS Reliability e.g. Safety, Awareness, Added Value, etc.
NEDO’s Project: HRS Item1:Streamlining Regulation Regulations on operations Regulations on location Regulations on materials Transport regulations Multistation Accumulator Compressor Hydrogen trailer Storage Hydrogen dispenser Hydrogen production unit H2 Open space for fueling Clearance/distance regulations Other traffic regulations
NEDO’s Project: HRS Item2:R&D on Low Cost Equipment for HRS • The present cost of supply equipment is 500 to 600 million yen. • The goal is to reduce the cost of H2 refueling stations by half. Cost breakdown for hydrogen refueling station Type II Example of medium-scale on-site costs CFRP Cr-Moliner
NEDO’s Project: HRS Equipment, System to reduce Human Error Professional Operator to ensure safety Item3: HRS Reliability Automatic Fueling Monitoring System of HRS Hardware By Each Company Software Reduction of parts to reduce the risk S1 S4 さい Education & Training New Tech.Development for sensor etc. High-frequency Inspection S2 Sharing of Safety Information Seamless pipe etc to reduce leak Database ・Development of new structural materials ・Review of design factor User-friendliness to avoid risk by non-professional Safety Handbook Voluntary Standards Etc.
